Policy analysis reveals misaligned incentives obstruct off-site social housing construction, indicating a need for procurement and curriculum reform.
Submission to the Senate Economics References Committee inquiry into Social Housing. The submission examines the relationship between conventional project-based residential construction incentives and the industrial transition required for rapid, standardised and lower-cost social and regional housing. Drawing on State-based building training material, it considers the commercial treatment of variations, margins and project complexity; contrasts project-builder economics with off-site institutional production; and recommends development of an enduring industrial housing-production capability, associated procurement reform, and review of State-funded building curriculum.
